03 Greedo Returns With New 'Free 03' Album Ahead Of His Release From Prison

03 Greedo is preparing for his long-awaited release from prison by dropping a new album.

On Monday, January 9, the imprisoned rapper released his Free 03 album in collaboration with producer Mike Free. His first project in three years comes complete with 14 fresh tracks with collaborations from OhGeesy, KenTheMan, BlueBucksClan and the late Drakeo The Ruler. It serves as the follow-up to his 2020 mixtape Load It Up Vol 01 with RONRONTHEPRODUCER, which features contributions from Key Glock, Sada Baby, Chief Keef and others. Greedo first teased the project last weekend by posting the tracklist. The following day, his prison release date was confirmed.

The Los Angeles native has been in the rap game since 2010 following the release of his self-produced mixtapes like Bi-Polar (1-4), Everybody Weak and Money, Powder, Regrets. He released his debut album God Level via Alamo Records in 2018. A month later, Greedo received his 20-year sentence in prison.

Greedo, born Jason Jamal Jackson, has been behind bars since he was sentenced to 20 years in prison back in 2018. He was hit with drug and gun charges in 2016 after police found four pounds of methamphetamine and two stolen pistols in his car. Prior to his plea deal, he initially faced a 300-year sentence for first-degree possession of a controlled substance and third-degree unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon. He became eligible for parole in 2020 and got a target release date for 2026.

03 Greedo is set to be released from prison on Thursday, January 12. Until he's official free, listen to Greedo's new project below.
